I was sending a text and then the screen went blank with the white apple. I turned my iphone back on and all my texts and contacts were gone. How can i get my text messages back?

My friend was sending a text with a pic as an attachment and then suddenly, she got a blank screen with the white apple logo and it then shut off. When she turned it back on, she discovered all her texts and her contacts were missing. How can she get them back? She's got a iOS 4.3.5 with a 16GB iPhone 4.

Connect to the computer she regularly syncs to, right click on the iPhone's name in iTunes, and choose "restore from backup".

What do you mean " back up my photos or Apps"?
The photo sync is one way - computer to ipad.
You can transfer itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

like roaminggnome said you should see your contacts again once you sync with iTunes. if you used iCloud before, make sure contact sync is turned on and your contacts should be back.

Are your contacts still on your computer? If yes, set one contact up on the phone and sync it, you'll get the option to merge data.
If there are no more contacts on the computer, see if your latest backup still has the info, if you did not sync after you lose the info, they are still part of the backup.

How can I get my deleted message back ? How do I hide my contants?

I Would like to get my deleted message back .
i Would also hide my contants.

IF the message that you deleted is in a backup, restoring the backup should bring the message back. Be aware that when you restore a backup, you restore everything in that backup to your device. If your backup is one month old, you will be turning back the clock one month on your iPad with regard to app data, settings, camera roll photos, etc, - if you restore that backup.
Do not backup the iPad before you restore the backup, or you will simply be restoring a backup that no longer includes the message that you deleted.
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
You cannot hide your contacts in the contacs app, if that is what you are asking how to do.

When i plugged my iphone into PC to add music, i found out afterwards that a number of my contacts were gone. Can i get them back or are they lost forever. Why does this happen?

Why do i lose some contacts on my phone everytime i plug it into my pc to add music to my phone? frustrated!!

For your contacts go to settings on your phone - mail contacts and calendars - scroll down to contacts and change display order to the one you want ( you can also change sort order, but ususally people prefer last name first and see if that is what you have).
For your yahoo emails go on your computer open outlook
In Outlook 2010, choose File > Accounts.
Click account settings and confirm the command by clicking "Add and remove accounts or change existing connection settings."
Select account and click "Change."
Click "Advanced."
Click "More Settings."
Click the "Advanced" tab.
Enter "7" in the box to the right of "Remove from server after."
Click OK.
Close Account Settings.
If you have outlook 2007
In Outlook 2007, choose Tools > Account Settings.
Click the account you wish to edit and then click Change.
Click the "More Settings" button.
Select the Advanced tab located across the top of the window.
Select the "Leave a copy of messages on the server" option.
Select the "Remove from server after" option.
Enter 7 in the box to the right of "Remove from server after."
Click OK.
Close Account Settings.

If they are not in a backup then your only hope is to get them from your PhotoStream. See:

I have one of the first IPads and an IPad air. I use the old one at school. Last week, the screen went blank on the old IPad. It seems to be frozed. I have tried holding down the wake button and home button. The apple icon shows briefly, then blank

I am wondering if one of the apps from the IPad Air is causing a problem with my old IPad. If it is, How do I correct the problem?

Hey Tina,
If it is not working after the restore, then you may find more information by using another one of Apple's support resources. Checkout the link below for further assistance.

Just thought I'd add my solution, I decided to go with WebDAV and I think it actually works better than the iTunes way, the steps are pretty much the same but avoiding the iTunes interface just makes things easier and faster.
I followed this guide but it does have a small mistake in the httpd-dav.conf file, on line 2, where it's WebServer/WebDAV">, it should be <Directory "/Library/WebServer/WebDAV">.
The tricky part is setting permissions which if wrong will give you errors when connecting with the iPad, I opted to set all to Read&Write since my home network has a hardware firewall. Another convenience was to add an alias to the webdav share on the Desktop.
I'm still expecting the call from Apple but even if they fix the iTunes I'm sticking with WebDAV, atleast until I see what's new with iOS5 and iCloud this fall which should bring true sync for documents (I'm hoping that they will offer encryption with my own keys, if not, then I'll probably keep using WebDAV).

I was sending a text and then the screen went blank with the white apple. I turned my iphone back on and all my texts and contacts were gone. How can i get my text messages back?
